"Pre-wedding photo in Japan"
Marriage is one of life's key milestones we only get to experience once.
Beautiful memories of places he loves and places I love, the sights we've seen, and the food we've savored.
It's about those little things in life, like laughing together lightheartedly at something silly.
Without you, I would probably not discover something new and taken on new enchanting experiences.
Is it my first time to Japan? Probably not.
I want to capture all the beautiful moments of our travels together like the warmth of your smile.
Let us travel to where we want to go, in the season we want to be in, and capture in photographs the blissful smiles of our faces when we are together.
That is the kind of romantic trip we want to embark on, no matter when and where.
